35 years after he entered India and raised a family, Bangladeshi man jailed in Odisha

A Bangladeshi man, Abu Sahik, who entered India 35 years ago and raised a family, has been jailed in Odisha. The police picked him up in September 2025, and he has been denied bail twice. His counsels argue that the law does not discriminate between a foreigner and an Indian in granting of bail. This case highlights the legal challenges faced by undocumented immigrants in India and the need for a clear policy on their status and rights.
